Dunnes Stores for Skibbereen?

Today’s Southern Star has a piece on a planning application for a shopping centre on the outskirts of Skibbereen that may see Dunnes win the race versus Tesco to set up an outlet in Skibbereen.

The application was lodged on April 20th for eight acres at Carrigfadda, to the rear of Leonard Motors on the Tragumna Road however given the traffic constraints already in getting to that side of town since Lidl was opened at the same roundabout it is likely there will be several objectors. Any such development would make so much more sense north of the twon given the superior road infrastructure.
